BAYCURRENT CLASSIC CHAMPION

It’s hard to keep great talent down for long, as Xander Schauffele proved with his victory at the Baycurrent Classic in early October. Schauffele, a two-time major champion, won for the 10th time on the PGA Tour when he edged out Max Greyserman by a stroke.

Schauffele incurred a rib injury late in 2024 that affected his performance for most of 2025, with only three top-10 finishes prior to his victory at the Baycurrent, his first win since taking The Open in July 2024. A stalwart on Team USA in both the Ryder and Presidents Cups, he has been a consistent presence at the top of the leaderboards for most of his PGA Tour career, so it must have been somewhat disconcerting for Schauffele in 2025 to have that happen infrequently. However, coming back to top form after injuries sometimes takes a while, and with this victory, it appears Schauffele has accomplished that.
